could the lady who owns the house not take legal proceedings against the driver for the damages?
She should have been able to just claim off the driver's car insurer. Not sure why that hasn't happened, the criminal case against the driver is unrelated to the victim, it's the CPS vs the driver not the pensioner vs the driver.
claim off the driver's car insurer
Pretty sure the drink bit invalidates any insurance and means the claim must be made against the individual.
Paying for call-out fees and the like sounds suspicious though?
